Hello! How best for a user to check out a slurm node?
Unfortunately, command 'salloc' doesn't appear to meet this need. Command `salloc --nodelist some_node --time 3:00:00` This gives the user a new shell and the user can use `srun` to start an interactive session. However, if the user needs to reboot the node, set BIOS settings, etc then `salloc` automatically terminates the allocation when the new shell is closed. salloc: Relinquishing job allocation 82 salloc: Job allocation 82 has been revoked. Ideally, if a user requests a node for a few hours then they can do all of their work in the allotted time (srun sessions, reboots, BIOS settings, etc) using a single job allocation. Also, how can I reply to posts and replies on https://groups.google.com/g/slurm-users/? The 'Reply all' and 'Reply to author' buttons on the site are greyed out. Much appreciated!
